Hi, Becket.

Please keep everyone apprised of your progress with ketamine. The information will be incredibly valuable.

Again, I want to stress that you might find ketamine more effective when it is pulsed every 5 days or so rather than dosing it every day.

Also, ketamine has a therapeutic window that might not be too hard to find. One of the research clinicians who worked with ketamine early on found that his patients did not respond well unless a dosage was reached that produced a mild dissociative state. It doesn't last very long, though. Maybe an hour? Increasing the dosage beyond this threshold yielded a loss of efficacy.

This doctor was at Yale at the time. His name is John Krystal. I haven't kept a close watch on ketamine for quite a few years. Perhaps his initial findings were inconsistent with what has been learned about ketamine since.

Good Luck!

This stuff really works wonders for some people.
